This is the kind of stuff that makes Keith Jackson leave his west coast
digs to cover a real football game.

Man pleads guilty in order to watch

Associated Press
COLUMBUS, Ohio -- A Columbus judge says he'll let an inmate stay in jail
instead of moving him to prison right away so he can see the Ohio
State-Michigan game on TV this Saturday.

Jeff Renne told Franklin County Common Pleas Judge Richard Sheward
yesterday that he would plead guilty as long as he could stay in the county
jail through the weekend. Inmates at the jail can watch TV, but it's
off-limits at the Orient reception center, where they are held before
they're moved to one of the state's prisons.

Renne was charged with forgery. He says if the Buckeyes win on Saturday,
he'll still be "on cloud nine" despite being in prison.

Judge Sheward says he granted Renne's request because it's Michigan week
and he thought he should do his part for the Buckeyes.

Yeah nothing like allowing a criminal and a sportfreak judge to manipulate or grant certain persons priviledges based on whether they will plead guilty or not.

This is a shame on our legal system.

The whole fucking country needs to burn.

actually there is no law requiring a person leave prison. they are granted release, but do not have to leave. also in pretrial, the man could simply not pay his bail
